This time, Mother Lin didn’t express any opposition as she had already told her daughter to draw the line. Her daughter was so outstanding, if someone were to fall in love with her, it would be very normal. She just needed to tighten her discipline towards her daughter.
“What are you talking about? If it’s a small business, I can’t treat you? Are you looking down on Auntie?” Mother Lin said dissatisfied.
“Auntie, please don’t misunderstand. I don’t mean it that way. I feel that the money Auntie earns is filled with hardship, and Hanhan even has to come over to help out after school. If we were to eat your food for free, we would definitely feel guilty. Besides, I am here today because Fatty is treating me. If Auntie isn’t willing to accept our payment, we shall not eat here,” Cheng Yu was heartbroken for Lin Yuhan. In the day, she had to attend school, and she would have to come over to help out her mother after school. Now, she was so busy that her face was filled with sweat. How could Cheng Yu possibly take advantage of them?
“That’s right. Auntie, today I have promised to treat Boss to a meal. If you were to waive the payment for our meal, next time, Boss will definitely find a place more expensive than this. Then, I will no longer have a reason to deny his choice,” Fatty backed Cheng Yu up.
Mother Lin frowned. This fatty addressed Cheng Yu as his boss. It seemed to her that these two people were not good. So young, yet they acted like hoodlums. However, when she saw they did not want her to treat them, she no longer forced them as she kept silent. She looked at Cheng Yu as she said, ”Since it’s like that, I will not talk about this anymore. Student Cheng, I don’t know if Xiao Han has told you this, but I hope to invite you to our house to have a meal to express our gratitude. This time, you mustn’t decline the invitation.”
“Haha! Auntie, I will not decline this time. Today, Hanhan already told me about this in school. I told her that I am free tomorrow. I am not sure whether tomorrow is convenient for Auntie?” Cheng Yu laughed.
“Haha! That’s great. Auntie is free tomorrow. Tomorrow, I will not set up my stall. After school, you can just follow Xiao Han and come home with her.”
“Sure!” After that, Cheng Yu and Fatty found an empty table and sat down.
“Boss, why was Auntie Lin so polite to you suddenly? What kind of help did you give them? Didn’t she still show you attitude yesterday?
“You will never understand. Perhaps, when you become as handsome as me, you will understand. However, this is not possible, so you will never be able to understand it.”
Fatty realized that Cheng Yu wasn’t willing to talk about it. Although he was still very curious about it, he no longer asked about it because he knew that his boss was someone with lots of abilities that were extremely mysterious. He knew that some topics would not be appropriate for him to know, so he would not ask about them.
After a little while, Lin Yuhan brought four large bowls over. The amount of food that they had ordered was too much, so it was necessary to split them the food into four separate bowls.
“Hanhan, are you hungry? Do you want to join us and eat for a bit?” Cheng Yu looked at Lin Yuhan who was covered in sweat.
“It’s ok. You guys can just enjoy it alone. There are still a lot of customers waiting for me to serve them,” When she saw Cheng Yu’s caring expression, Lin Yuhan felt very happy. She excused herself as she went to serve other customers.
Cheng Yu did not say anything else as he lowered his head and started eating his food. As it was his first time having this kind of food, it was actually very flavorful to him. After around 40 minutes, they finished the four bowls of food.
Fatty patted on his tummy, ”Ah! So full. Boss, how about you? Do you still want more food?”
“You think I am like you? To be able to finish this much, it’s not a simple matter. And you still think I am able to eat more?” Cheng Yu touched his tummy as he said to Fatty irritated.
“I already told you before not to order so many things. Are you guys satisfied now?” Lin Yuhan walked over while berating them.
“Haha! Hanhan, how can you blame it on me? It’s not like you don’t know. When I am in front of you, I lose my sense of reasoning very easily,” Cheng Yu leaned on the chair and flirted.
“Hmph! I am too lazy to be bothered by you. The total is $66,” Lin Yuhan extended her hand and demanded the payment from Cheng Yu.
“Didn’t I say that today was Fatty’s treat, why are you asking from me the money? You can only ask money from me when you are buying stuff.”
“That’s right. Student Lin, don’t you think you are looking down on me too much?” Fatty patted on his tummy and said discontentedly.
“You pig! He asked you to pay and you pay? Are you feeling rich? Then pay up now!” When Lin Yuhan heard what Fatty said, she replied back furiously.
“Haha! Student Lin, don’t be angry. Here you go,” Fatty took out $100 from his wallet and passed it to Lin Yuhan.
“Keep the change,” Cheng Yu shouted.
Fatty almost vomited out what he had just eaten, ”Boss! Isn’t this too inappropriate?”
“Here’s your change! Quickly get lost! I still need to do business. When I see you guys, I always become angry!” Lin Yuhan passed Fatty his change.
Returning back home, he saw his family was watching the television in the living room. Cheng Yu sat on the sofa and said, ”Cousin, serve me a cup of tea. I am too full and can’t move anymore.”
“Hmph! Go and get it yourself!” Zhao Yunfang said angrily.
“Huh? Cousin, who annoyed you? Tell your Brother! Brother will help to get revenge for you,” When he saw his cousin’s angry expression, he asked curiously.
“Hmph!” Zhao Yunfang harrumphed and no longer spoke as she continue to watch her show, Pleasant Goat and the Big Big Wolf.[1]
“Auntie, what’s wrong with her?”
“Isn’t it because of you? The moment this little lass came home, she complained for the past two days. Apparently, you did not wait for her to come home together. That’s why she is angry,” Cheng Meiyan went to grab a cup of tea for Cheng Yu. If it was in the past, Cheng Yu would not be able to have this privilege as his aunt had never once liked him. However, after the incident, he had changed. Not only had his temperament changed, the way he handled things also became more mature. To those who cared about him, these changes were very pleasing to them as they felt that Cheng Yu had finally grown up. Also, he had developed miraculous pills recently, causing her to be even more satisfied with him.
“So it’s like that. Cousin, because of this, you are angry with your Brother? Haha! Look at you pouting!” Cheng Yu grabbed the tea his aunt served him and took a sip.
“Hmph! Who cares!”
“Haha! Don’t be angry. Your cousin is very busy.”
“Hmph! I know you are lying to me. Today, there were rumors circulating the school that you fought with someone yesterday.”
“What! Cheng Yu, who did you fight with? Your mother just left and you went to create trouble again? If something happens to you again, your family will become sad,” When she heard her daughter’s words, Cheng Meiyan looked at Cheng Yu angrily.
“Auntie, you can’t blame it on me. Besides, I am a good fighter. Fangfang should know about this.”
“Even if that’s true, it’s still not a good thing! So what if you are a good fighter? What if there were a lot of opponents, wouldn’t you fall because of a disadvantage? If you were to face any problems in the future, you must give me a call first. Do you understand?”
“Ok. Uncle, have you heard of this person called Wu Chang?”
“Huh! Follow me,” Zhao Minglong was stunned by the name that Cheng Yu had said. They went into the study room. The interior was very simple. There was a table with a table lamp and lots of documents. Behind it was a bookshelf with neatly arranged books.
They sat down. “How did you get to know Wu Chang? Did you provoke the Blood Wolf Gang?” Zhao Minglong frowned.
“Haha! No. It was the opposite. I heard from them that they don’t place Uncle in their eyes at all. I don’t think there’s a need for you to interfere in this as I can help you deal with them. Otherwise, they will come and find trouble with me every day.”
“Do not act so recklessly. Blood Wolf Gang is the biggest gang in Yunhai City. They have hundreds of members. Furthermore, there are countless experts, and some of them are even armed. We were unable to do anything to them. Luckily, there are another two gangs that are also as powerful as them. So, they don’t dare to be so rampant. However, to the government, they are all ticking bombs. We all wish to deal with them, but this is not so simple. Tell me, how did you get to know them?”
“Yesterday, a kid called Jiang Ming brought a guy named Dao Jiu to find trouble with me, and I crippled them. Today, another guy named Wu Chang brought his men over, and I also crippled them,” Cheng Yu said peacefully.
“What! You crippled Wu Chang?” Zhao Minglong’s eyes widened in shock. Wu Chang was the third boss of the Blood Wolf Gang! Although he was the weakest among the bosses, he wasn’t someone who could be handled by an average person. His nephew had actually crippled him?
“Should be. At least he isn’t dead,” Cheng Yu thought that Wu Chang should be crippled. At least he didn’t have any intention to kill him.
“You did it alone? Crippled all of them?” Zhao Minglong was still unconvinced.
“Relax! Uncle, it’s just a few of them. I don’t even place them in my eyes. At first, I thought of rushing to their headquarters to destroy them. But I feel that there isn’t a need to do that just because they were rude to me. Today, I asked them to convey a message. If they continue to provoke me, they must not blame me for not giving them a second chance. That’s why I am telling you ahead of time. If they were to piss me off, I may really eradicate them. I hope when the time comes, Uncle can help me to settle the mess. Besides, I think you also wish for them to be removed, right?”
When he heard Cheng Yu actually intended to destroy their headquarters, Zhao Minglong broke out in cold sweat. He felt that he could no longer understand his nephew, and from the way he phrased it, he didn’t seem to be lying.
“I think that you should calm down. Although I’m not sure how strong you are, it will be no simple matter to destroy the Blood Wolf Gang. I hope that you will be able to give me a call before doing that.”
“Sure! I said before, it all boils down to their attitude. If they choose to continue provoking me, I will no longer be polite. I will go back to my room to sleep,” Cheng Yu stood up and left the study room.
At night, Zhao Minglong and Cheng Meiyan were on their bed. Zhao Minglong poked his wife beside him and asked, ”Meiyan, do you think you have a clear understanding of our nephew?”
“Of course! I have seen him grown up since he was a kid. He has always been everyone’s treasure that was spoiled by everyone. He started to cause trouble everywhere because he was so spoiled. However, didn’t he turn better already? Why are you asking this?”
“Nothing much. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel that the current Yu’er is no longer the same,” Zhao Minglong didn’t say much as he did not want her to worry. After all, he still felt that the entire conversation with Cheng Yu in the study room was just a dream.
“That’s something good, right? The current Yu’er is so obedient. Besides, he has become more mature and no longer goes around ravaging girls. Furthermore, he even has his own business. He actually developed those miraculous pills!” When talking about the current Yu’er, Cheng Meiyan was quite happy about him.
“En! Let’s sleep,” Zhao Minglong no longer commented about Cheng Yu as he closed his eyes. Cheng Meiyan did not even bother thinking much about it.
